3. The Weaving Process: A Labor of Love

Handmade rug weaving is a meticulous process, involving:

•             Design Planning: Artisans map out intricate designs, often using graph paper or traditional patterns.

•             Warping and Knotting: Threads are stretched on the loom, and knots are tied one by one to create the design.

•             Trimming and Washing: After weaving, the rug is trimmed to perfection and washed to enhance its texture and colors.

Each step requires patience, skill, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.

Once the weaving process is complete, the rug undergoes finishing touches to ensure it meets the highest quality standards:
